Always wanted to stay at 23 love lane and it finally happened. The small hotel is an oasis in the mids of George Town. The style of the hotel is taking you back in time, super relaxing and beautiful. The staff is beyond helpful, talkative, and nice. 23 Love Lane is very well located, within walking distance of food and sights.

Really nothing, we had a wonderful stay and would come back any time.

A very friendly and most helpful staff greeted me on the day of my arrival and made my stay unforgettable! The room was furnished in the typical colonial style - with some original old antiques; The infrastructure (bath, shower, AC, van, WLAN, lights, mosquito repellent) were all perfectly clean and/or worked seamlessly The garden and "lobby" area is inviting you to have 5 o'clock tea or have an afternoon nap in one of the hold chairs. The attached steak-house provides the best filet in town -> including great fries and a fantastic sauce. If you are looking for the typical British colonial experience THIS is the place to be. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Quirky, interesting and a bit lace that isn’t bland or soulless. Friendly and helpful staff. Location in the old part of Georgetown, easy to get to the everything. plenty of different places to eat close by.

The side streets that the hotel is on are noisy at night (scooters, rubbish trucks). But that’s Georgetown.

Amazing hotel with equally amazing staff. The building itself is restored from the 1700s and has a really nice vintage feel. The original purpose of it is still largely unknown, but it has been a school before it became a hotel. The rooms are all very nicely desiged and quite a joy to stay in. The staff at the hotel are super friendly and helpful. We had a really great stay and would love to come back.

I am quite exigent. Nevertheless, I found this hotel absolutely gorgeous (and for a very reasonable price). The property was built during the 19th century (and has been refurbished, since then) and is located in a very humid, tropical country. Most pieces of its furniture are authentic and very well maintained. So, obviously, there are some traces of humidity on the wall. Obviously one can find some smell of antique buildings and wooden objects. But this is part of its charm. So, we liked: . the staff. Always smiling, polite and ready to help; . the comfort and the cleanliness of the room, but also of the lobby, the library, the garden and the patio; . the free tea/coffee/juice, offered every afternoon to customers who stay several nights; . the biscuits, crackers and fresh fruits which are at all time in the lobby, for the customers; . the decoration (furniture, objects and paintings); . all details that show a good taste (bathrobes, slippers, toothbrush, new soap/shampoo, etc. changed everyday); . the excellent breakfast, which gives the choice between local style or continental, with fresh juice, bread, jam, etc; . and the high professionalism of the staff (ask for Ms. Alisya)

Beautiful property. you’d feel so relaxed once you walk into 23 Love Lane!

the switches in the room are a little confusing, but other than that. it’s all great

This is always my go to hotel whenever I'm back on penang. Location is great, the ambiance is fantastic and one night when I got back fr a day trip, I found the housekeeping had lighted a candle n turned the lights low w the air-conditioning on for me.. what a delight to come back to a sweet scented room.

They had a new desk/reception person and when I stepped through the threshold, he looked at me and said.. this is a hotel! Hmm.. do I looked like someone who can't be staying there? Anyway, apart fr that and a bit of other tiff.. I will still come back cos I love this place and also the security uncle who always made my stay very welcome.

Second time staying here and will definitely stay again. Lovely room good size and great bathroom with excellent shower. Comfy bed and good wifi. Excellent service enjoyed the brekky too.

Everything from service to room to location is excellent.
